A modern take on the classic white kitchen in Boulder County, this luxury remodel blends clean lines, bold contrast, and elevated natural materials for a timeless yet contemporary result. The design features crisp white custom cabinetry paired with a dark statement island and perimeter quartz countertops, creating a striking balance of light and depth. At the center, Infinity White honed quartzite brings natural elegance to the island, while Caesarstone Black Tempal quartz grounds the perimeter with durability and contrast. Two-tone cabinetry by SOLLiD Cabinetry (Laguna II framed series) enhances the layered aesthetic—White Oak Iron stain on the island and Dove White on the perimeter—adding warmth, texture, and architectural detail throughout the space. A honed Bianco Dolomite chevron backsplash from TileBar introduces subtle movement and refinement, finished with Prism Oyster Grey grout, brushed nickel Schluter edging, and precise 1/16” grout lines for a clean, high-end finish. Black fixtures and minimal detailing complete the design, reinforcing a modern, elevated interpretation of the classic white kitchen—simple, refined, and built for timeless living.

Serhii Makhno designs exclusive furniture, lighting, and décor and most of the objects in his apartment are of special value. The designer likes to interpret traditions in a contemporary way and infuse his interiors with art (the studio’s motto – is “We art the world”). That’s why WABI SABI flat consists of art pieces of different forms. Black copper lamps and blue ceramic ones above the dining area belong to the collection “Earth”. Also, there is a massive smoky lamp in the kitchen and a couple of textured lamps in the bedroom.

Wild View Farm includes a new “Forever home” (we deconstructed an existing house with a 90% landfill diversion rate), and enhancements to several working barns. The 80 acre site was an original homestead farm from the 1890’s. Both its buildings and soil had become severely degraded. The owners are working to holistically restore this property and make it a model of modern regenerative farming. They are planting hundreds of trees, re-introducing livestock and working with Dryland Agroecology Research and High Plains Permaculture to restore the soil. The -51 HERS rated home is not just energy-efficient - it’s a model of “Regenerative design”. The deep green house design included multiple challenges – foremost was how to create a Passive Solar design that also took full advantage of the massive views to the West. We solved it with an L shaped building that optimized passive and active solar strategies on the south face, then actively protected the western facade with a giant covered porch and tuned glazing. The home’s leading-edge energy package includes a Ground source heat pump, a large roof-mounted solar PV array, battery back-up, EV chargers, and Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV), Energy Star Appliances and windows, a robust foam insulation shell and LED lighting. We also endeavored to craft a modern day interpretation of the farmhouse typology, with a low-slung simple gable-roofed form that would feel like it’s always been there. The exterior material palette of limestone, cementitious stucco and heavy timber gives it a rich Colorado Modern Farmhouse feel. The home is full of custom details like walls of vaulted glass to capture the sweeping mountain views, an AI Smart Home control system, a sleeping loft for kids and guests, a hard-working Butler’s Pantry, a gourmet outdoor kitchen, a pool & spa, a cozy office nook for reading, and a lovely built-in bench for morning coffee. Phase 2 of this project will include a Farmworker ADU and a full renovation of the existing historic barn. Built by Skycastle Construction. Interior Design by Kimball Modern and Rodwin Architecture.

The guest will feel comfortable tucked in a nook area of the room. The glass in the door is large enough to serve the purpose of increasing the sense of space in the room while the divided leaded glass provides some privacy. The stylized flower head is repeated in the top of the glass. Large and small wall panels serve to broaden the nook area while increasing the warmth around the bed. Design and detail are hallmarks of the craftsmanship from Jaeger and Ernst. We want to create very special rooms and environments for you.

A mod interpretation of a shelter arm sofa, Palmira’s design sits beautifully in both traditional and contemporary settings.

Harbor View is a modern-day interpretation of the shingled vacation houses of its seaside community. The gambrel roof, horizontal, ground-hugging emphasis, and feeling of simplicity, are all part of the character of the place. While fitting in with local traditions, Harbor View is meant for modern living. The kitchen is a central gathering spot, open to the main combined living/dining room and to the waterside porch. One easily moves between indoors and outdoors. The house is designed for an active family, a couple with three grown children and a growing number of grandchildren. It is zoned so that the whole family can be there together but retain privacy. Living, dining, kitchen, library, and porch occupy the center of the main floor. One-story wings on each side house two bedrooms and bathrooms apiece, and two more bedrooms and bathrooms and a study occupy the second floor of the central block. The house is mostly one room deep, allowing cross breezes and light from both sides. The porch, a third of which is screened, is a main dining and living space, with a stone fireplace offering a cozy place to gather on summer evenings. A barn with a loft provides storage for a car or boat off-season and serves as a big space for projects or parties in summer.

Atwood chairs from Lexington Furniture. The Atwood is a remarkable new frame design offering a contemporary interpretation of a classic barrel-back design.

A custom interpretation of a classic L-shaped form, this staircase begins with a soft curve at its base, transitions across a central landing, and continues in a clean, straight run to the upper level. Nutty brown oak treads, paired with a matching handrail and box newels, create a sense of continuity with the surrounding hardwood floors. Crisp white risers introduce contrast and lightness, allowing the structure to feel open and balanced. Slender square iron balusters bring a tailored rhythm to the composition, offering a quiet counterpoint to the warmth of the wood. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

Built on a dune overlooking Lake Michigan, this residence appears to emerge from the landscape. The project brief called for an artful house that promotes wellness and outdoor living. Rugged beauty and four-season adventure drew the owners to the area but presented challenges, including wildfire risk. The site needed a durable shelter that responsibly integrates with the environment. Clad in sand-colored stucco, the house will intentionally be obscured by grasses and junipers over time. Outdoor spaces are layered to match the undulating topography. A steel superstructure enables an ultra-thin roof with overhangs for passive solar design that withstand gale-force winds and heavy snow loads. A crushed-granite courtyard offers refuge on windy days. This space is enclosed by operable Cor-Ten panels that rotate open to reveal dune views or close for a cloistered experience. The courtyard is further defined by a deconstructed roof with an aperture that frames sky views. Expansive glazing and porcelain flooring unites interior and exterior, evoking a sense of inhabiting an infinity house. A screen porch, concealed by louvers, is a contemporary interpretation of a time-honored lake house vernacular. ​Layers of light and an edited palette of materials unify the interior and evoke a laid-back feeling of beach towns. On both levels, bronze glass walls artfully define rooms while preserving views.

Completed in 2015, this project incorporates a Scandinavian vibe to enhance the modern architecture and farmhouse details. The vision was to create a balanced and consistent design to reflect clean lines and subtle rustic details, which creates a calm sanctuary. The whole home is not based on a design aesthetic, but rather how someone wants to feel in a space, specifically the feeling of being cozy, calm, and clean. This home is an interpretation of modern design without focusing on one specific genre; it boasts a midcentury master bedroom, stark and minimal bathrooms, an office that doubles as a music den, and modern open concept on the first floor. It’s the winner of the 2017 design award from the Austin Chapter of the American Institute of Architects and has been on the Tribeza Home Tour; in addition to being published in numerous magazines such as on the cover of Austin Home as well as Dwell Magazine, the cover of Seasonal Living Magazine, Tribeza, Rue Daily, HGTV, Hunker Home, and other international publications.

Living in cooking should be prerogative of total serenity and adequate operational rationality. The aesthetics and compositive elegance are added values that could be customized with creativity at will. SYGNA interprets very well these concepts, by proposing a series of targeted pleasing finishing to the front of the doors, with oak veneer and brushed lacquered.

This includes the sublime interpretation of the cross-handled tap in trademark Celine contemporary tubular Black Matte, with matching larger circumference black matte wall mounts, complemented by the streamlined simplicity of the horizontal 180mm wall-mounted spout with the curved end, also with matching mounting plate.

Almost like a contemporary fairy tale interpretation, a modern enchanted residential house - the "Mie House" - stands in the middle of the Welzheim Forest. Deep black, at peace with itself, in harmony with nature, and with powerful aesthetics. From the outside as from the inside, it is the color black that dominates the view. Anyone who assumes that cozy living and a strong choice of color contradict each other is mistaken. Black is omnipresent, modern, noble, charming, and expressive. The handleless LEICHT kitchen in a deep, velvety matt look with the BONDI range fits seamlessly into the overall modern effect. In keeping with the sculptural character of the house, the centrally placed island block with its generous solid oak worktop, grey-matt, almost black-looking fronts and filigree handles stands in the middle of the kitchen space - simply homely and cozy, without disregarding the clear architectural aesthetics. This is the perfect place to live, cook, simply live - especially on the loggia. The spectacular view of the boundless expanse of the Welzheim Forest invites you to daydream without restraint.
